Tough Plants for Southern Gardens

Heads up southerners!

Have you been bitten by the gardening bug?

Are you struggling to figure out what to plant and where?

Don’t have time to baby those plants?

Well have I got the book for you!

Tough Plants for Southern Gardens by Felder Rushing is just
the book you need. Along with lots of photos this book is full of details about
oodles of different plants. This info is helpful enough to help you find the
right kind of plant and where to put it in your yard. Plus, Felder includes an
extra little tip about each plant that you can share with your friends that
will make them marvel at your vast horticultural knowledge.

You know why else I love this book? Because Felder is just
folks. He’s an everyday ordinary person just like us and he wants to try to
help us succeed in our gardens. He doesn’t gussy things up with highfalutin
mumbo jumbo, he says things that make sense. Notice anything interesting about
the fabulous garden in the above photo? Look harder. Yep, that stunning garden
belongs to a trailer. Doesn’t matter where you live, Felder will help you
create a beautiful garden.

I know you want this book so hoof it on down your local
public library. If they don’t have it ask them to get it for you. If you’re in
Georgia you can click here to find out which libraries have it. Those outside
of Georgia can click here to see which libraries near you have it. (hint: type
in your zip code so you can find the closest library that has it). Enjoy!
